Two Cleveland men, accused of stabbing a 25-year-old Manitowoc man outside the Top Hat Lounge on Dec. 14, were bound over for trial on Thursday.

Jose E. Alfaro-Espinoza, 24, and Roger A. Mercado-Arita, 28, each face a felony charge of being party to attempted first-degree intentional homicide with the use of a dangerous weapon. The men waived their preliminary hearings and entered not guilty pleas.
